Jackie, we use Allied-Telesyn a bunch here. Occasionally they do get flaky with some NICs... which is not necessarily A-T or Apple, sometimes the auto-sense just doesn't. (autosense.) First try logging into the switch to hard-set the port at full-duplex and 10 or 100, likely 10 if you're uplinking to a core switch at 100 up. (That uplink port likely the only one to set at 100-full.) On the OSX eMacs, you might find that on Network Settings you can go to TCP/IP settings, then click Advanced to set the speed/duplexing. But the older 5100's are a bit tricker if on OS9. Apple once had a 3rd party extension you could drop in to the System/Extension folder that would do the equivalent of setting speed/duplexing. You might try an Internet or Apple search. I'll do the same here, but it may have gone the way of phone-net adapters - no promises.
